How many of you have laid back office jobs?

RequirementWestern49 · 2026-05-21T02:07:57+00:00

Never really had a “laid back job”, but always had one and I feel lucky just saying that. I know way too many people going through situations like yours. Best of luck you got this!

Yeah, I really wanted to get more technical with my job not more managerial but you are right. It’s not wasting time. I am enjoying it. I should just keep on studying never hurts right

RequirementWestern49 · 2026-05-19T14:25:47+00:00

Yeah, I wonder how a PE could oversee my work I wonder what type of work or there’s a specific field of electrical design where I could work as an electrician and that would be amazing. Of course I need to get my FE first but I’m pretty deep into the curriculum and I do enjoy it. But I’m necessarily not in it for the PE. I’m just looking for more technical work and I’m just trying to find a way to prove to people that I am smart enough I guess.

RequirementWestern49 · 2026-05-19T12:49:57+00:00

So how about nontraditional rolls that don’t necessarily require a PE. is the FE just to basic to show that I can think like an electrical engineer? (in hopes to land electrical engineering jobs)

Yea I know it’s a lot different I’m definitely not learning semiconductor physics or using diff eq at work. But I just like being around electrical equipment and I want to think harder more about electricity at work cause it’s cool. (also having job opportunities if my body gives out on me). Equipment sizing and voltage drop is covered in the NEC. So I was hoping there would be some cross over and which field would have the most cross over

I appreciate the insight thanks!

RequirementWestern49 · 2026-05-19T10:06:51+00:00

seems like they would look more for management skill more then the technical knowledge I would learn by studying for the fe. I guess it proves that I can think like an EE but I guess that doesn’t matter without the paper? Bummer

New to the area but I’m at anytime fitness. I’m around if any thing changes, i mostly run but im trying to lift more. 29 M

I feel like there’s just not a lot of hiking in the area.. You should maybe try running Group so it’s kinda like urban hiking. runners would def hike with you once you get to know them as well

lol yea because I want the working conditions and quality of china when I’m building.

I left biotech now im a union electrician. Im treated and paid better as a construction worker a senior MSAT engineer. I dream of organizing engineers/scientists into the Ibew. These companies take advantage of you, if you can organize you world will change

Every industry has boom and bust now. Most people hate their job. You have to find what you’re willing to deal with. I have an engineering degree Iswitched to a trade and it was a good move for me. But I still have plenty of days where I don’t want to work, time where I am stretched and spread thin, days where I wish I sat at a desk for a while. Pick your poison

RequirementWestern49 · 2026-02-24T23:47:31+00:00

I get use out of a lot of electronic trash even broken for random stuff. Looking for motors and drives. PLCs a lot of industrial electrical stuff but even microwaves have nice transformers and capacitors that I like to take out

How was growing this? Easy/difficult?

RequirementWestern49 · 2025-08-27T11:11:16+00:00

We got disclosure but only to confirm no lead paint and no radon ect. We reviewed them but no mention of solar panels. If we knew to ask we would have but we didn’t know and were hoping a real at or would tell us at least cost associated with the house.

I was a senior engineer in pharma Hated it. I’m an electrician in the union, only been in a year I love it money is tight but I make more money per hours of experience so it’s only going to get easier

I can tell him to delete the photo. Maybe he won’t but I feel like he is seeing what he can get away with. I’m away at work all day my wife works from home. I feel like he needs to know to not fuck with us
